Summary: ( from www.dvdverdict.com )

  "Jonas is a crime scene photographer. Married, with
  two kids, his domestic routine is happy but boring.
  His staid life is jolted after he causes a car accident
  that puts a woman in the hospital. Guilt-stricken, Jonas
  looks in on Julia, posing as her boyfriend in order to
  get past her family. When Julia wakes up suffering from
  amnesia, however, Jonas decides to maintain the deception.
  He's fallen for the mysterious woman and life as Sebastian
  seems more appealing."

My Comments:
  
  As with most film noir, the story is not to be taken seriously.
  This one is good but flawed at points.  As a mystery, it works and
  succeeds in creating suspense and dark stylish atmosphere.  The
  direction and cinematography are good, so is the acting.

  As with most murder mystery, there is a bit of violence - not too
  much though.
